Forks In the Road

Life is a highway with many forks, Your future’s shaped by each decision Most of us aren’t sure of where to go A lucky few follow a vision Mostly it just a step at a time One decision leads to another Not good to seek the easy way out Choose the fork that will take you further When you grow old and look back in time You can recall the forks and the gates There’s no way to know what might have been So smile and be happy with your fate
